16th International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods

他将于2005年1月在纽约主持第十六届域分解方法国际会议。在某种形式下，域分解是迄今为止在大规模并行分布式分层存储计算机上进行大规模模拟的最常见范例。然而，许多领域分解的用户并没有利用已知的最复杂和最有效的方法。在过去的几年里，随着硬件的可用性，大规模科学模拟社区的规模迅速增长，这一点尤其正确。在科学界，传统上与计算数学或计算机科学社区没有紧密的联系。本系列的第十六次会议将对大规模模拟社区产生重大影响。会议的最终目标是通过鼓励整个国际计算科学和工程社区的跨学科技术交流，并利用会议地点的优势吸引许多新的美国科学家到这一重要领域来促进领域分解方法的进步。

The investigator will host the Sixteenth International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods in New York City in January 2005. Domain decomposition, in some form, is by far the most common paradigm for large-scale simulation on massively parallel distributed, hierarchical memory computers. However, many users of domain decomposition do not avail themselves of the most sophisticated and efficient methods known. This is especially true as the size of the large-scale scientific simulation community has grown rapidly with the availability of hardware in the past few years inside of scientific communities without traditionally strong ties to the computational mathematics or computer science communities. The sixteenth conference in this series will have a high impact for the large-scale simulation community. The ultimate goal of the conference is to promote advances in domain decomposition methods by encouraging interdisciplinary technical interchange throughout the international computational science & engineering community and by taking advantage of conference siting to attract to this important area many new U.S. scientists.
